AndyW Posted December 31, 2005 Report Share Posted December 31, 2005 Never even heard of the website itself, let alone the review! Was ok, some decent little pictures too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adam Posted December 31, 2005 Report Share Posted December 31, 2005 Thats a great find and a great review, reading that makes me wish it was summer again so i could hit some B roads and have a bit of fun! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grapo Posted December 31, 2005 Report Share Posted December 31, 2005 The brakes are wonderfully powerful, and faded not once in our hands, but the car squirms and moves around under heavy braking, though the stability control system keeps it pointing in the right direction just as quickly as you doStability control system?

scotty g Posted January 1, 2006 Report Share Posted January 1, 2006 Stability control system?Ive heard this mentioned before but im sure they dont have it.The supplying dealer i got my used lupo from laughed when he handed the lupogti history over to me to look at. The owner before me had kept all letters from volkswagen to him AND AND AND he'd photocopied about four magazine wright ups. Can only remeber two at the mo. One was putting the car up against the mini cooper (bmw) and the other was putting up against the mk1 golf gti.Actually i think one of the others is when one magazine took ther lupo gti to the ring in the germany.

MattyB Posted January 1, 2006 Report Share Posted January 1, 2006 and faded not once in our handsWell either the newer GTi's had better pads, or they really weren't trying at all - mine used to give up after only a few miles in Wales...

The subtle modder Posted January 1, 2006 Report Share Posted January 1, 2006 Yes but if your on about wales country lanes then thats a different matter as some of them are amazing but deadly at the same time if you screw up and the mates mini was taking a good hammering around mould etc so something with decent power such as a lupo gti would take even moor punishment id imaginewayne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
